Always keeping an eye on you

A new palette at the color room and a new LO of course. I have to tell you that I feel extremly inspired in this room and it's like something is pushing me to folow the palettes (didn't missed one till now!!).


Anyway, I had this picture with Kian and my mom and I knew I'll scrap it one day. I love the look of my mom and I also found the appropriate title. They have a great granny-grandchild relationship and he is always excited visiting her. He loves getting some small (or sometimes even big) presents and mom's pantry, where he always finds something to bring home: most of the times this is some special shaped pasta or something that he sees for the first time. He still loves to lie on the bed next to her and they put their legs together and enjoy the company. They really have very much in common!

For the heart I was insipire at Bojamoja's blog (I've told you Simona!!!). I love her scrapbook cards!!! She made a card using some punched flowers for the heart and I fell in love with it so I tried it and personalized it a little bit. i used a heart puncher and add some wire, some glossy hearts and some gem hearts.

Thanks for visiting my blog and have a good Sunday!

Favorite shop

It's time for your favorite shop on These are my favorite things. Do you have your favorite shope and what does it sell?
Well, my favorite shop is my garden. Years back I didn't like gardening and I always said that I'l never have one but after having a child many things changes and I started to see the miracle that is hapening and the healthy products mother nature offers in her shop. Now, I enjoy going in tha garden and picking some vegetables before I start preparing lunch and several times during the day I go there with Kian just ti poic a carrot out of the soil, some strawberries and other fruits that were growing just a few seconds before you picked them and this is what I call enjoying the fresh fruit and vegetables.

You have to tell us what is your favorite shop!!! As always there is a fabulous prize waiting for the winner and a great athmosphere for everyone!!! Come on, just scrap it!

Daddy's bedtime stories

Bedtime stories are really important for children. Every night Matej or me read to Kian several stories and he just loves that moments. I enjoy it too and sometimes even too much because yesterday I was reading a book to Kian and I was doing some scary voices for the bed guys and at the end of the story Kian said: "Mom, don't make those voices again because I'm scared!" OOOPS!!!!! I really must have got in the caracter a little bit too much :-)

Also this page was inspired by the Color room and I enjoy to participate because I must say that the quality here is really high and I' always impressed and inspired. So, the colors were:

Dusty Cocoa

Light Orange

Slate Grey

Definate Beige

Here is my page:

I selfmade those little books and for the slate grey I used some Time Holtz reinker Stormy sky.

A feather that we found on a family trip...

I suggest you to pop over this fantastic blog - you'll get immidiatly inspired!!!!

A special way to say "I love you"

The other night before going to bed Kian said that he has something to do before sleep. He took a red pen and drew first a heart on my hand and than on his hand. He looked at me and he said: " So, now I'm done!". This it was certainly on of that Moments with the big M. He told me "I love you" in a very particular way and this was priceless. He always surprises me with this kind of gestures. I have to say I enjoy every moment with him.

I decided to scrap it and let my creativity to be inspired of the palette #11 of the Color room.

This week Kian and me were home alone again because my hubby went to Brasil on a business trip. Well, he phoned a few moments ago and said that today is impossible to have a business day because Brasil is playing for the world cup 2010 and everything is closed , even the factories!!!

So tomorow he is coming back home and this is like a holiday to me.... Have a wonderful day and enjoy the journey!

Men at work

The Color room offers a blokey palete and it was a perfect occasion to scrap about Kian's passion for tools and hardware ecc. When he was still baby he didn't like any toy at all but he was soooooooooo intrested in daddy's toys and whenevery Matej is repairing something Kian is always nearby assisting :-) And don't tell him how to do something because he knows it all!!!!



For this lo I used real spanners as masks and spray them with glimmer mist. For the page frame I did some gear maks and cut them out. An old ruler was of the right color!

The big gear is a plastic ne and is from a brokes Kian's toy car. I just painted it and Voila!

For an extra boy touch in tis page I put some sand paper as a background detail...

Having a boy I'm always searching for new ideas as a replacement for the missing flowers.... Sometimes is hard to achive the same richness as the flowers offer but I'll never give up :-)

Have a nice day!

Toy no.1

This is myfirst week as a These are a few of my favorite things DT (yaaaayy!!!!!) and the theme is my favorite toy. I had no doubts...... I had to scrap once again about Kian and his fave toy - daddy!!! He really is his fave toy and they play together all the time. In fact if there is a moment when my hubby feels tired and tells Kian to go and play by himself he immidiatlly says that there's no way he would do this and usually in the end Matej gives up and restarts to play :-))))

An abundant use of glimmer mist in this LO and distressing as well. I also simply printed some vintage toys and put them on the top of the photo. For the background frame I misted over a Prima stamp package carboard that has a nice scalloped shape.

And what's your fave toy????? Make something that smells like scrapbook and capture maybe your best friend from your childhood. You'll see how funny but also deep can be creating about things that are the essential part of our lifes!!!!
